MySQL Normal Shutdown

02-13-2014, 12:33 PM

Does anyone know of a good way to capture who shutdown a MySQL server? I have a few servers that keep shutting down with a normal shutdown. Initially, I thought it was a bug, but Oracle is pretty adamant that it is not. Plus, I did look at the MySQL source code and the logic is pretty straight forward. it looks like someone has to issue a normal shutdown for the error log to produce that error. However, I have been unable to find the culprit. None of the logs are capturing anything... I've looked at messages, the audit log, mysql, last and nothing.

As of today, I have enabled the general log and have taken tcpdumps. Yet, I still have been unable to capture anything. Any advice would be appreciated.
